    Looks much nicer than the chrome looking ones, IMO the chrome ones look cheap.

    Done well, played strong!

    i wish i had waited for the bronze. it's not as 'flashy' as the chrome but the print is still quite nice.

    congrats on your new unit.

    i agree with the above poster. i went out today and got to see them for myself and that bronze color adds a touch of class. i wouldn't say the onyx/chrome is cheap lookin.... just plain and nice..... the bronze actually caught my attention as i got to the laptop section and i even shut the lid on the demo units so i could see the color fully. very nice.
    havent been able to see an hdx16 in person. i woulda liked to compare .

    My bestbuy has an HDX16 i dont like the number pad at all. Its small like that 15.6 inch g60 or what ever it they have. I like the finish but i think i like the black more. If you want any more pictures i am willing to take them.

    definitely, I got mine on sale at Best Buy for 649 and it is absolutely fantastic! definitely the best money/feature ratio i've seen in a long time for a desktop replacement, the bronze is definitely an interesting look too though which I thoguht was a bit reminiscent of halo haha!
